You can get the ASX side mirrors that have the signaling. Need to flash the computer and do the wiring of course.

The more of that Dynamic Shield on the OS/RVR, the less I like it. Ugh. Good place for snow and ice to accumulate in front of the headlamps.

This photo tells a lot!

Is the guy in the vehicle so underwhelmed he fell asleep?

Very similar, just needs a fresh coat of glossy cherry red paint.

There's a thread around here somewhere about the mirror turn signals, a quick search should find it.

But "yes and no" to your question. The turn signal lamps, like almost everything else on the vehicle, are controlled by the ETACS ECU (a bit more info HERE (Archive version, just in case)). Thus, you need to enable the "mirror turn signal" option in the software in order for them to function. You're not "flashing" the entire ECU, you're just accessing it and modifying the settings a little.

Another thing I just noticed in the mototrend link was the mention of ANOTHER CUV model.....

MT: Do you see Mitsubishi becoming a company that only builds crossovers in the future?
DS: I see it more focused on CUV. We’re talking about our next CUV now. We’re talking that we’ll take the Outlander and move it a little up, and I mean up in size, so it will become a little wider, a little longer, and then we’ll bring another car in between the Outlander Sport and the Outlander.
